Colosseum

Colosseum
a museum
to Man's flaws and folly

Amphitheatre
(do come hither,
don't be melancholy)

Gladiators
fought with gators
and all manner battle

For the praetors
men and critters
slaughtered like some cattle

Yet it stands there
Understand their
circuses and bread

What would you do?
And stay true to
what you'd do instead
